President says Georgia should be regional transportation hub

Air services will be established between Tbilisi and Seoul, Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili told journalists on Thursday after meeting with his South Korean counterpart Lee Myung-bak in Seoul.

He said negotiations are underway on this matter between the relevant agencies of the two countries. Saakashvili stressed that his country should become a regional transportation hub, especially in aviation.

"Infrastructure projects, which are under implementation in Georgia to building a network of new, modern airports, contribute to it," Saakashvili said.
